That’s really a great job. Thank you for your interest in our cause.
I have been working against these psycho-analytic views for 25 years, supporting my colleagues in establishishing a proper scientific basis for and understanding of autism. It is horrifying to discover these views and this domination of a delicate educational situation still exerting itself after all these years. above all, the smugness of many of the speakers was horrifying. They had no humility in face of the enormity of the problems.
In addition, my felicitations to Sophie Robert for maintaining her composure under these circumstances.
